Robust Measurement of Stellar Streams Around the Milky Way: Correcting Spatially Variable Observational Selection Effects in Optical Imaging Surveys

K. K. Boone, P. S. Ferguson, M. Tabbutt +47

Observations of density variations in stellar streams are a promising probe of low-mass dark matter substructure in the Milky Way. However, survey systematics such as variations in…

Constraining the Stellar-to-Halo Mass Relation with Galaxy Clustering and Weak Lensing from DES Year 3 Data

G. Zacharegkas, C. Chang, J. Prat +100

We develop a framework to study the relation between the stellar mass of a galaxy and the total mass of its host dark matter halo using galaxy clustering and galaxy-galaxy lensing…

Weak Gravitational Lensing around Low Surface Brightness Galaxies in the DES Year 3 Data

N. Chicoine, J. Prat, G. Zacharegkas +102

We present galaxy-galaxy lensing measurements using a sample of low surface brightness galaxies (LSBGs) drawn from the Dark Energy Survey Year 3 (Y3) data as lenses. LSBGs are diff…

OzDES Reverberation Mapping Program: Stacking analysis with H, Mg II and C IV

Umang Malik, Rob Sharp, A. Penton +47

Reverberation mapping is the leading technique used to measure direct black hole masses outside of the local Universe. Additionally, reverberation measurements calibrate secondary…

Environmental Quenching of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies near Milky Way mass Hosts

J. Bhattacharyya, A. H. G. Peter, P. Martini +48

Low Surface Brightness Galaxies (LSBGs) are excellent probes of quenching and other environmental processes near massive galaxies. We study an extensive sample of LSBGs near massiv…

Chemical Analysis of the Brightest Star of the Cetus II Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Candidate

K. B. Webber, T. T. Hansen, J. L. Marshall +42

We present a detailed chemical abundance analysis of the brightest star in the ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxy candidate Cetus II from high-resolution Magellan/MIKE spectra. For thi…

Cosmological shocks around galaxy clusters: A coherent investigation with DES, SPT & ACT

D. Anbajagane, C. Chang, E. J. Baxter +111

We search for signatures of cosmological shocks in gas pressure profiles of galaxy clusters using the cluster catalogs from three surveys: the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 3, the…

A search for faint resolved galaxies beyond the Milky Way in DES Year 6: A new faint, diffuse dwarf satellite of NGC 55

M. McNanna, K. Bechtol, S. Mau +63

We report results from a systematic wide-area search for faint dwarf galaxies at heliocentric distances from 0.3 to 2 Mpc using the full six years of data from the Dark Energy Surv…

Timing the r-Process Enrichment of the Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Reticulum II

Joshua D. Simon, Thomas M. Brown, Burçin Mutlu-Pakdil +65

The ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Reticulum II (Ret II) exhibits a unique chemical evolution history, with 72 +10/-12% of its stars strongly enhanced in r-process elements. We present d…

A Sample of Dust Attenuation Laws for DES Supernova Host Galaxies

J. Duarte, S. González-Gaitán, A. Mourao +58

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are useful distance indicators in cosmology, provided their luminosity is standardized by applying empirical corrections based on light-curve properties…

Identification of Galaxy-Galaxy Strong Lens Candidates in the DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey Using Machine Learning

E. A. Zaborowski, A. Drlica-Wagner, F. Ashmead +88

We perform a search for galaxy-galaxy strong lens systems using a convolutional neural network (CNN) applied to imaging data from the first public data release of the DECam Local V…

OzDES Reverberation Mapping Program: H lags from the 6-year survey

Umang Malik, Rob Sharp, A. Penton +64

Reverberation mapping measurements have been used to constrain the relationship between the size of the broad-line region and luminosity of active galactic nuclei (AGN). This …

Characterising the Intracluster Light over the Redshift Range in the DES-ACT Overlap

Jesse B. Golden-Marx, Y. Zhang, R. L. C. Ogando +66

We characterise the properties and evolution of Bright Central Galaxies (BCGs) and the surrounding intracluster light (ICL) in galaxy clusters identified in overlapping regions of…
